30 Days till I Divorce My Husband (Estrella and Jason)

Chapter 68

Jason’s face was a picture of exasperation. Gripping Estrella’s wrists with both hands, he remarked with a smirk, “Trying to mooch off me again, huh? Having a bit too much fun at my expense?”

Estrella wriggled her right hand free and playfully smacked his shoulder. “Can’t there be at little trust between us?”

Jason wrapped his right arm around her waist, pulling her close. “Looks like someone’s more spirited in the morning.” He whispered teasingly into Estrella’s ear,

Jason gave Estrella’s bottom a playful slap. “Get off.”

With Kristin in the house, their intimate moment was over. It was time for breakfast.

Jason’s mood, which had been on the rise, was doused, eliciting Estrella’s sympathy. She consoled him, “Tonight, then. I’m not working late today.”

After a lingering kiss, he finally let her go.

Moments later, they made their way downstairs where Kristin sat with an embarrassed. look on her face, not expecting Estrella to so boldly tackle Jason. It seemed the issue lay with her son, not with Estrella.

“Here you are.” Kristin greeted them with a smile, then added, “I’ve brought some tonic for Jason. Make sure he finishes it, Estrella.”
